AZ the Fine Display of Dry Goods by
MOnson & Carpenter. >:s
At Monson & Carpenters business is un,.
usually driving and our reporter yesterday
found the large cloak room in the rear part
of this large and highly popular dry goods
emporium busy place indeed. Here is ex-
posed to view very large assortment Of
really fine plush cloaks, genuine London
dyed, not of the common German cheap
stuff in the markets which buyers regret
having ever bought. Here are also great
stock Of fine shawls and superior cloaks,
wraps and jackets for ladies and garments
for the misses and children in great variety.
Also here is the spot for curtain fixtures.
But the large stock of standard frst-class
silks and choice dress goods is also up to the
high standard of the house as is at once
recognized by the ladies. The latest designs
and colorings in dress goods are fully repre-
scented and includsruany novelties in combi-
nations. Princess broadcloths, SO desirable
for tailor made costumes, choice assortment
of French plaids, camels hair mixtures, Alma
serges, colored Henriettas with Moire Antique
silks to match, Cheviot checks and many
other varieties are among the novelties. The
firm has the agency for the best foreign and
domestic makes of silk. Their whole
stock ia always admirably selected and repre-.
sents all that the market supplies, and the
heart of well and tastefu1ly dressed lady
can crave, and the prices are the lowest for
the quality to be found anywhere. The firm
does not sell you poor or inferior quality
goods such as are frequently advertised at
low prices and represent them as the best,
but adheres to standard goods that are sure
to be good quality and give satisfaction. ALI
the fashionable styles are displayed and in
such variety that buying in New York is not
necessary, and home merchants like these
MAXWELL be patronizedss Their facilities for
buying and importing are unsurpassed in our
can be sold for. This old establishment and
popular house surpasses its past golden
record in it's fall display for 1887.

FAIR HAVEN.
Acceptance Last Night of Rev. MIR
Blakes1ee's ResignatIOn-The Actor
of the Meeting and Discussion.

Acceptance Last Night of Rev. MIR.
Blakeslees Resfgnation-The Action
of the Meeting and Discussion.
At the meeting called last night at the
Second Congregational church for the purpose
of acting upon the recently rendered resigna-
ton of the pastor, Rev: Erastus Blakeslee, it
was decided to accept the resignation.
The meeting was held in the church chap
Ell and in the absence of, the senior deacon
Lucius Rowe, Deacon Charles N. Hubbard
acted as chairman. Judge Charles A. Bray
was appointed clerk, and when the meeting
was called to order he read the call issued by
the committee for the meeting of the church
to officially act upon Mr.. Blakeslees resigna-
ton.
Mr.. Bray then made a speech, in which,
while deploring the fact that Mr.. Blakeslee
had resigned, he stated that he thought that
as the call from Spencer offered wider field
of usefulness and its acceptance would SO
naturally benefit both the pastor and his
family, that no obstacle should be interposed
by the church.
Deacon GLADSTONE took different view OF
the matter and thought that the welfare OF
the church should be consulted, and as he
considered that Mr.. Blakeslee's removal
would be detrimental to the church's inter
ested, he was opposed to the acceptance OF
the resignation.
A motion was then made to accept the
resignation, which was carried by vote tc
4. A motion TO make the vote unanimous
was carried.s an. 49, ....-,.e-s-
Mr.. Bray made motion to appoint com.
mittee to act with the committee to be ap-
pointed next week by the church society and
with any other committees that may here
after be appointed to call a council of the
church for the purpose of dismissing Mr.
Blakeslee. Judge Bray, Deacon Lucius Rowe,
Deacon Albert Rowe and Deacon Il. w
Loomis were appointed committee to repre-
sent the church in this council.
Another committee consisting of Judge
Bray, Judge L. P. Deming, Deacon Hubbard
and B. N. Rowe was appointed for the pur
pose of drawing up a resolution upon the
resignation of the pastor, which resolution
is to be inscribed upon the church records.

The Prevalent Diseases I'm Connecticut
I'm September.

Secretary Lindsey, of the State Board of
Health, has received reports for September
from all but two towns in the State and he
finds that the general health of the State was
better than in August. The total mortality
was ,006 as against ,S7S in August, repre-
senting an annual death rate of only 17.7 per
1000 of population as against %. 8 in the
month before. In twenty-three towns there
were no deaths in September. Typhoid fever
was fatal in thirty-two towns with thirty-six
fatal results. and was reported as only exist
ing in nine other towns. This is a marked
increase on its prevalence in August. Typho
maIarial fever, so called, is either abating or
the doctors are getting out of favor with the
hybrid name and are naming 1t more correct
" typhoid. But eleven deaths are attributed
to il in the State. Consumption destroyed
one hundred and twenty-seven lives, which
is probably in excess of the average from that
disease.
